ANALYSIS OF MANNED SYSTEM DISPLAYS FROM THE CRITERIA OPTIMIZED BY THE SYSTEM RESPONSES

In manned systems, performance can change significantly with changes in display design. With today's computer and display technology, it is possible to provide virtually any display function desired including automating many of the information processing tasks previously performed by the human operator. However, the relationship between display design and total system (person and machine) performance must be known in order to systematically select display features. The object of this research program was to develop system performance models (SPM) for ship control as an aid to ship display and control design.
